About this study

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of using a polyester mesh endoprosthesis with a fluoropolymer coating in reducing postoperative complications, particularly protrusions, following subcutaneous mastectomy with simultaneous prepectoral placement of textured breast implants in women with breast cancer

Read the detailed description

The study includes female patients aged 18 and above with a verified breast cancer diagnosis, ECOG performance status 0-1, and clinical stage T1-T3, N0-3, M0, who provide informed consent. Exclusion criteria involve intolerance or allergic reactions to mesh endoprostheses or implants and a subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness of less than 5 mm (measured via Pinch Test). Participants will be non-randomly allocated into two groups: the main group, receiving a polyester mesh endoprosthesis with fluoropolymer coating alongside textured implants, and the control group, receiving textured implants alone. Surgical procedures will involve subcutaneous mastectomy with implant placement based on preoperative measurements of breast dimensions, with or without nipple-areolar complex preservation. Postoperative follow-ups at 1, 3-6, and 9-12 months will assess complications such as protrusions, seromas, implant contouring (rippling), capsular contracture, and dystopia via physical examination and ultrasound. The hypothesis posits that the use of mesh endoprostheses will lower protrusion rates compared to standard implant placement, offering a potential advancement in reducing postoperative risks in breast reconstruction for breast cancer patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Subcutaneous mastectomy using a fluoropolymer-coated polyester mesh endoprosthesis with simultaneous prepectoral placement of textured implants.Procedure or surgery

    For this group of patients, the planned volume of surgical intervention is: subcutaneous mastectomy using a polyester mesh endoprosthesis with a fluoropolymer coating and one-stage prepectoral installation of textured implants.

  • Subcutaneous mastectomy with simultaneous prepectoral placement of textured implants.Procedure or surgery

    This group of patients will undergo surgical intervention in deep subcutaneous mastectomy with simultaneous prepectoral placement of textured implants.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Frequency of protrusions throughout the year

    Implant protrusion is a complication that occurs after reconstructive plastic surgery. In this type of surgery, the implant is displaced from its anatomically correct position leading to its protrusion through the skin. This happens when the integrity or strength of the tissues that hold the implant (such as capsules, muscles, and fascia) is compromised.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 1. Frequency of seroma 2. Frequency of Rippling 3. Frequency of Capsular contracture 4. Frequency of Dystopia

    1. Seroma is a pathological accumulation of serous fluid in the tissues after surgery or trauma. Most often, this condition develops after operations that affect large areas of the skin and subcutaneous fat.
    2. Rippling - represents contouring of the implant through the surface of the mammary glands, expressed by folds in the area of implantplacement.Sometimes it is called "skin ripples" or"washboard effect".
    3. Capsular contracture is the formation of connective tissue around the implant, resulting in compression and deformation of the prosthesis.
    4. Dystopia is a displacement of the implant relative to its original correct anatomical position, which leads to breast deformity, asymmetry, or functional discomfort

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Subcutaneous mastectomy using a fluoropolymer-coated polyester mesh endoprosthesis with simultaneous prepectoral placement of textured implants. and Subcutaneous mastectomy with simultaneous prepectoral placement of textured implants. in people with Breast Cancer and Breast Reconstruction, run by Saint Petersburg State University, Russia at 1 site in Russia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Russia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Frequency of protrusions throughout the year (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Sep 2025.
